Wanting to learn php simple development!

[in2tech]

I am wanting to learn simple php development for phpVMS. As most programmers know of any language there is the "Hello World" very simple program for almost any programming language. But I do better with taking existing things and looking at them and changing them up or adding something simple. For example like I did on just one item. Added just a simple Fleet Home link to the fleet_view.tpl file on the Extended Fleet v1.0 module. That's another question, is just a page a module? Like the Pilot Center? Or does it have to have more components, like SimPilot's ScreenShots module? Which is where I saw the Previous/Next links when someone add's a new screen shot.

SimPilot Screen Shot Module:

For instance I want to add a Previous and Next to the existing Extended Fleet Module, so once you choose an aircraft you can cycle through the others, but all I can find about this php codes involves messing with the database and I am not that comfortable yet.

Extended Fleet Module:

Can someone help me in the right direction to add code and than maybe make my own Module one day? I guess my "Hello World" phpVMS module

Thanks for your help!

I am struggling to understand what you want if you want to know how to make pages via a module? I have compiled 2 different pastebins one shows the code to make a link to go to the previous page, the other how to create a page module.

Best way to do the sliding would be through a jQuery plugin, search for 'jquery content slider' and see what you can find.
